This Appears to Be a Tacit Agreement Between Us (NA)
这好像是我们之间的一种默契

Crafted from segments of the artist’s personal diary spanning 2022–2023, This Appears to Be a Tacit Agreement Between Us features fragmented phrases that capture a visceral transition in the artist's life. The narrative distills reflections on personal encounters, literature, and cinema, preserving the moments of daily life.

The zine is designed in a memo-like format, mirroring the intimacy and spontaneity of a personal archive, treating each fragment of notes and snapshots as a punctum of the ephemeral.
